Beach Activist Considers Commission Run
It's been confirmed.
Steve Glassman, President of the Central Beach Alliance in Fort Lauderdale, has told us that the rumors just might be true. Not only might he hop into the race and challenge incumbent Commissioner Charlotte Rodstrom for the District II seat in Fort Lauderdale, but he might even run for Mayor!
Here's how the exchange went down by e-mail:
Steve.... Did you see the comment that was submitted in the story about you...? Seems some want you to run for Commission... Is this the start of a good rumor ?....Tim
Tim.... Thank You ; checked it out - very nice ...Received some call too!
So Steve.... I'm putting together an update on the blog about who's in the race for Mayor/Commissioners, and want to include those that have rumors swirling about them?. Is it fair to say you are one with the swirling rumors? ...Tim
Tim.... Thanks for the interest...Are you bugging my phone?... In all honesty, yes - I have been approached by friends and people I don't even know personally who have asked me to consider running for either the District II seat, or for Mayor..... Steven
That's at least a non-denial ! ...Tim

IS this the same Steve Glassman that was in favor of a new highrise, after beating up on re-development for all these years?????

Steve .... you might have a better chance running for the District II Commissioner than the Mayor. ..Someone has to get Rodstrom out, you might just be the one who can do it.

We need a Leader with a vision, but Steve , District 2 in the west side of the City has some big on going Crime problems and the Commissioner needs to be more like former Commissioner Tim Smith. I do not know you as a crime fighter ,but I have been impressed with your work on the planning and zoning Board .

Is this a joke? Steve Glassman? No one knows who the -ell he is??? Going against an incumbent with the Rodstrom star power??? I bet she is running scared! NOT!! LOL (In fariness to Steve what's his name, I doubt anyone can beat her. Be realistic. Incumbents have the advantage, and Mrs. Rodstrom will be able to raise mega bucks.)
